Who Do You Think You Are? returns with Charles Dance under the microscope, while - gasp! - Dave the Cat's gone AWOL in EastEnders
Pick of the day
Who Do You Think You Are? 9.00pm, BBC One
Game of Thrones' fans – we know you're out there, you rascals – might be drawn to this far more genteel show given that one of the cast members is the subject matter as WDYTYA? returns for a new run.
Charles Dance plays Tywin Lannister in HBO's big hitter, but here he's the subject of some family tree searching, which unearths some fascinating family secrets.
The actor wants to find out whether or not his mother's work as a under-house parlour maid continued back through generations. He's also curious about his father, who passed away when Charles was just four.

X-Men: Days of Future Past, 9.00pm, RTÉ2
Bryan Singer's back at the helm of this X-Men yarn, the seventh in the franchise and a sequel to both 2006's X-Men: The Last Stand and 2011's X-Men: First Class.
This time around, time-travelling is on the agenda as Professor Xavier and his school of young mutants fear that they're facing extinction.
Nothing for it but to send good oul' Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) back to the 1970s so he can alter the gang's grim future - and maybe put some manners on anyone wearing mad flares and tank tops.

Today's Guilty Pleasure
Riviera, 9.00pm, Sky Atlantic
This has been hugely disappointing, but it's good for a spot of admiring the vacuous lives led by wealthy people up to no good on the French Riviera.
